This is a Salty Double Erel Gebirgs Visor that sure looks like the roundel is wrong as it does not appear to be "Vented", anyone see anything else funky?

No grommet in the cap band makes a vented cockade useless. I have no problems with the originality of the insignia as-is.

Who said it was?Originally posted by BenVK View Post
I am simply stating that having a vented cockade on this cap would be a complete exercise in futility without the grommet in place...so he shouldn't expect to see one here just because it is an Erel.
In the words of the assassin John Wilkes Booth, "Useless, useless."

Ouch. Sorry you're feeling a little grumpy there, Ben.
The word "vented" came up in the first post. No one said it was a vented cockade. However the OP appeared to be questioning the cockade because it is NOT vented, thinking that all Erels were vented...as they all are not. Elementary Erel-ology. Thats all.

Well done mate, you've seen right through me.
